From designing striking, creative magazine covers to putting together contents pages that pack a punch, we share ten fantastic tips for breathing life into your template designs.

Whether you’re creating a fashion bible, fitness magazine, or foodie flick through, you’ll find something here to help get your ideas going as well as helpful technical tips for making your magazine layouts look uber – professional.

  • Don’t be shy with your Cover Designs 

The most aesthetically pleasing magazines always have great covers. There’s no point spending time perfecting the inside pages of your magazine if casual browsers don’t pick up the issue to take a look. An attention-grabbing magazine cover design is vital for selling your magazine to readers and inviting them to delve deeper into the publication.

  • A single pop of color shouts the Loudest!

Some of the most effective magazine designs use color with black and white photography and monochrome text looks fantastic for men’s magazines and technology titles. Bright typography, banners, and dividers lend a sporty, masculine edge to layouts.

  • Spend Time Perfecting Your Contents Page

If your magazine has a large amount of content, don’t restrict your content to one page – branch out into a full two-page spread. This will give you plenty of room to introduce a large ‘ contents ‘ header.

  • Illustrated Graphics Make Magazines Unique

Browse any shelf of magazines and you’ll notice that most cool magazine covers use photos as their image medium of choice. However, an illustrative cover can look unique and super stylish and is a great choice for tech, arts, and design titles. On-trend flat graphics are easy to create and can make your magazine look particularly design forward.

  • Give a Digital Look to Print Layouts With Infographics

Titles like National geographic and Esquire are big fans of using infographics to illustrate articles in a more exciting, tech-forward way. Many magazines are moving away from traditional text-heavy article layouts and talking inspiration from websites and eBooks to create print layouts that appear more interactive and engaging.
